Hello, Beautiful!

I got to meet this lovely little girl named Avery Madison. She is so adorable and only a week young.



The mama has blonde hair and claims "she had nothing to do with this one" (haha). Well, she is beautiful just like her mother so she did contribute. I love that she has a full head of hair already!

Bartering


I got this lovely and unexpected gift from a friend of mine. She is doing a photo shoot with her soon to be husband and needed cowboy boots. I gave her a rarely used pair that I got at dsw before I became a cowboy boot snob. She loved them so I just said to keep them since I do not wear them. She thanked me by giving me this adorable Pyrex casserole bowl! See why can't bartering work in this country anymore?

Kevin Bacon Themed Bridal Shower

My sister, Kristin, loves Kevin Bacon. She is getting married on October 15th, so we decided to throw her a themed shower honoring her love for Mr. Bacon. My mother and I did a lot of research and with the help of family and friend we surprised her! We had a 6 ft cardboard cut out, bacon related food and Kevin Bacon masks. It was a hit!

Babysitting Some Chicks!



Happily babysitting two sweet chicks while my friends are away on vacation!

Chicken Tenders

Raw chicken tenderloins
flour
2 eggs
milk
lime juice
lemon juice
breadcrumbs
coarse salt
pepper
ground red pepper
Lowry's seasoning salt
spray cooking oil

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a glass pan with the cooking oil. Put a non-stick skillet on the stove.

In one bowl, add some flour. In another bowl add the eggs and some milk. On a plate add the breadcrumbs along with salt, pepper, red pepper and Lowry's seasoning salt or any other seasonings you like and mix. Dredge the chicken in the flour then the egg wash and then the breadcrumbs. Place in the skillet to crisp up the  breadcrumbs. Let both sides become a golden brown and then place in the glass pan. Do this until all chickens are covered. Sprinkle lemon and lime juice on top and sprinkle any extra seasonings. Cook about 20-25 minutes or until done.
